Flannel: “Capes of Many Colors”
My cape of bravery
Goes over my head
It makes me feel bold
And its color is RED.

My cape of honesty
Makes villains speak true
And chases out lies
Its color is BLUE.

My cape of fairness
Conquers those who are mean
It makes me feel strong,
And its color is GREEN.

My cape of calmness
Makes me feel mellow
It quiets the world
And its color is YELLOW.

My cape of wisdom
Helps me to think
And solve tricky problems
Its color is PINK.

My favorite cape
Gives me a nice glow
Its all these great colors
In a rainbow!

The superhero’s arms flex and lift, all around the town.

The Superhero’s legs run very fast…
The Superhero jumps up super high..

Flannel: “Five Superheroes”
5 superheroes ready to fly
Here comes the villain,
Stop that guy!
This superhero can save the day.
Off he flies – up, up, and away!

Count down from 4, 3, 2, 1, 0

If you’re Spiderman and you know it, jump up high…..
If you’re the Flash and you know it, run super-fast…..
If you’re Catwoman and you know, climb a building…..
If you’re Aquaman and you know it, swim through the ocean…

Did you ever see a hero flying through the sky?
